Arsenal host Norwich City at the Emirates Stadium looking to consolidate third spot in the Premier League table with rivals Tottenham and Newcastle just a point behind.

Ruddy lumps a long ball upfield to Jackson, but the forward cannot take the ball down in his stride.

Szczesny, who has not had a good game at all thus far, slices a clearance straight out of play and that's a sloppy start.

The second half is underway at the Emirates, and Wenger sent out his players very early indeed for the restart.

Dinesh Sharma believes it is high time Wenger bought more players, while Samuel Donalds remains confident the hosts will win 4-2. Tom Holloway thinks Norwich deserve their lead, but will see it eroded, and BurnsAlex41 is among those calling for Oxlade-Chamberlain to come on. What do others think?

Do you back Arsenal to force their way back in front in this match, or do you think Norwich will preserve their advantage?

The half-time whistle is met with boos from the home fans, and Norwich lead 2-1 courtesy of goals from Hoolahan and Holt after Benayoun gave the hosts the lead in just the second minute. It's been end-to-end stuff, and the second half should be equally entertaining.

Two fine crosses in the space of a minute are whipped into the Arsenal box, and Holt is twice very close to converting!

Vermaelen flies through the back of Jackson with a woeful challenge, and referee Taylor has no option but to book him.

Van Persie loses the ball to Naughton as he falls on the edge of the Norwich box, and another opening is wasted.

There will be four added minutes at the end of this first half, with Arsenal pressing forward in search of an equaliser before the break.

Norwich continue to keep the ball on halfway as Hoolahan wins the ball back, and he is having a superb game.

Lambert continues to have animated conversations with the fourth official, and he is infuriated by the recent calls from the referee.

Naughton whips over another fine ball, and Bennett falls to the ground after he and Koscielny collide. Lambert is furious at a string of decisions not going his side's way.

Coquelin slides in recklessly and brings down Jackson inside the Arsenal box, and replays show that he did not get the ball at all there - the referee must have thought that he made contact with the ball!

Rosicky breaks at pace and combines with Gervinho, but Lappin does well to hold him up and ensure that he doesn't cross into the box.

Rosicky takes a tumble again, and this time the referee gives him a free kick out on the right with Johnson furious.

Benayoun reacts furiously as he gets involved in a scufffle with Lappin, and he kicks out at the midfielder on the floor - petulant, and he's lucky the referee did not spot that!

STAT: An Arsenal player has scored multiple goals in three of their last four games against Norwich (Van Persie, Henry and Hartson).

Chance! Gervinho does superbly to force his way to the left byline and cut the ball back, but the onrushing Gibbs side-foots the ball wide from close range, lacking any real conviction.

Arsenal are being torn apart at the back as Jackson gets down the right and whips over a fine delivery, but this time Holt cannot capitalise!

It's been a period of play to forget for Arsenal, with Norwich turning this match around completely, coupled with the injury to Sagna.
